WTB: X31/X32/X40/X41, close to/less than $200

[fuscob]

I am looking to buy a second machine, but I don't need it very urgently, so I am looking for the best price possible.

Here's what I want:
-As the subject says, it must be an X31/X32/X40/X41.
-Must have a good battery, 4 or 8 cell doesn't matter
-Must have WiFi that supports 802.11g
-At least fair cosmetic condition, preferably good/very good
-UltraBase would be nice, but not required. Don't need an AC adapter.
-Processor not important (they're all Pentium M; any is fine)
-HD size/speed not important (actually, if it's an X30/X31, I don't even need a hard drive)
-At least 256MB of RAM; 512MB preferred
-Most importantly: As close to $200 as possible including shipping, preferably less

If anyone has a machine that meets these criteria (or wants to lower their price on one that they're already selling ), please let me know by PM.

Thanks!
Brendan

Here is an eBay X31 option for you. I have experience with the seller, the machine I bought was in fine condition. He also accepted about 15% less than his asking price, I used the Make Offer button. I suspect you can grab this one for $195 delivered (or slightly less).

Thanks! I e-mailed the seller to ask about the WLAN; the listing says that it has "802.11x"; not sure what that's supposed to be.

You can ask him for the exact 7 character model number and seach Lenovo.com to see which type it originally had - if any. There is also a chance that it was upgraded if it was only "wireless ready" or a B adapter.

For that price, regarding the wirless, there is little risk if you calculate an additional $10 for an Intel 2200BG after selling the B adapter for $5.
